Default Rubber weather seals

What do you guys use to protect/condition the rubber pieces that fit around the windows/windshield, etc? I noticed that the rubber on my car looks slightly dirty. I'd like to ensure that my car is as resistant to weather as possible. Please give me some advice as to what I should do. Thanks.

You cand got to H and A Accessories (one of our sponsors) and get some of Honda's Shin-Etsu silicone grease. You can also go to your nearest auto store and get a variety of protectants. I think even Armor-All will work.

As long as it says "safe for all rubber" on the can you can also use silicone spray.Spray it into a clean rag and wipe down all the weather striping.Again,make sure it's rubber safe.

I use the silicon grease for my pool equipment (keeps the O rings safe from water). Its about $2 per tube. A lot less than the grease from Honda.
